~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``F()`` objects assigned to model fields persist after saving the model
|
||||||
|
instance and will be applied on each :meth:`~Model.save()`. For example::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
reporter = Reporters.objects.get(name='Tintin')
|
||||||
|
reporter.stories_filed = F('stories_filed') + 1
|
||||||
|
reporter.save()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
reporter.name = 'Tintin Jr.'
|
||||||
|
reporter.save()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``stories_filed`` will be updated twice in this case. If it's initially ``1``,
|
||||||
|
the final value will be ``3``.
